There's a "Fn" key on the bottom left hand of the key board.

This key switches between the purple/white key funtions.

This gives the opportunity to have loads of functions with just a few keys.

Have you gone into the BIOS and set to boot from DVD? This must be done before it will boot from CD/DVD.

reinstall yr os

• Boot your system with the Windows XP Setup CD. A screen will come up to welcome you, then you'll have an option to accept the EULA agreement, etc - proceed as required.
• Then you will get an option to install XP afresh or "Repair your existing Windows XP installation". Choose to Repair by pressing “R”.
• It will then start the repair process by first copying files the files needed.
• In a few minutes, the setup will begin to restart your system and when it restarts remember NOT to press any key when it shows “Press any key to continue…”. Else setup will start from the beginning. Don’t press any key and setup will resume from where it stopped.
• It will start doing other tasks and will show a small progress bar with a few details in left hand corner.
• Look carefully at the details and when it shows “Installing Devices“, remember to press Shift key + F10 key in your keyboard.
• This will open up a Command Prompt window. Now type nusrmgr.cpl and press the Enter key.
• This opens up the “User Accounts” window which you normally get in the Control Panel.
• Cheers!! You can now easily reset any account's password.

How long has this been a problem and how long have you had this computer? Have you tried reloading your OS?

Open computer. Take out the BIOS battery. wait for a few seconds. put it back. Boot. The BIOS password is gone. You can set another one if you like. Tell me whether this helped. It used to work. And it should. But I have not done it for some time. Would like status to keep me updated. You may want to write down all the settings i the BIOS before you do this. And check back if any has changed once the task is accomplished.

open it and plug the wires u think are right for it it wont blow up so worth a try till someone else can answer , google it maybe?>

IDE? cable is wrongly seated. SATA, update BIOS.

That's it.

Ensure you have selected the correct country keyboard, eg US keyboard.

Please take a look at this thread:
CF-73 Sound
The installed driver may be faulty or the hardware dead although the latter is not common. BTW, the beeps are probably from a small transducer on the board and not part of the sound system proper.

The sound electronics are integrated and on the main board, there is no 'card' in the unit. You can see the complete specs here:

most times dust or damp culd cause a key to get stuck...so try using a suction blower to remove any residue left or take to an expert

If you can reach the motherboard you will find a round button cell. remove it for a few minutes and replace it again. the password would have been undone. Do not use passwords as one tends to forget them sooner or later. Or have one, if you must, that you can remember easily.

if you dont have the software - dont do it.

May I suggest instead, you do a cleanup and defrag of your computer.

If you need help with this ... let me know.

Im not telling you how to do it at this point because you didnt ask.

This is not a telephone company. It is a help site. you neeed to be consulting the place you bought your PBX.

You need to reinstall the Operating system also once you boot you need to go to CMOS setup and select Restore default settings , so its all default factory settings .. to know more email me
